Ryloth: Mission 4 - Rookie Rendezvous

Following some dialog, you'll appear in the stage with a wide pit directly ahead of you. Anakin says something about a ride being here. If you try to jump over the pit, you'll get nowhere. Smaller television screens don't make it obvious, but there are two droids positioned on hover bikes floating over the pit. You can blast them with a charged Force wave, then double jump out to land on one of the bikes that they were riding. Now you can ride that vehicle over the pit.

There are some enemies along the side, so blast them with your guns and also fire at the far wall to reveal an opening. Enemies will pour through that space, so tend to them with some more shots and then proceed through the new archway.

Blast the generator a few times to show it who's boss!

Shoot at the platforms to more easily collect trails of energy.

You'll now appear in a wider canyon, still riding on the vehicle. As you proceed along this route, enemies will attack from the sides. You can continue to fire at them with your weapons as you proceed forward and collect energy balls. Now you'll arrive at an area where a generator sits positioned at the top of a narrow stone column. It sends electrical charges in either direction, so you need to shoot it several times with your blasters to disable it. After you've done so, you'll have the option to trigger a mini-game.

This mini-game is simple. Droids will come flying in from the left side, one wave at a time. You need to blast as many as possible, then do the same with each successive wave and hopefully shoot better than your partner. The easiest way to do this is to slide along the lower right side of the screen, facing left so that you only need to nudge your aim slightly to take out most of the droids in each wave. With this strategy, you shouldn't have any difficulty earning a Platinum rank.

Once you've attained the score you want in that mini-game, continue along the canyon through the opening that you created by blasting the generator that triggered the mini-game. Continuing in this direction, you'll next find yourself in another long stretch with enemies swarming in from all around as you weave back and forth to collect the point-yielding energy balls. Here you'll notice that the points often are available just after or before high stone ledges that block your progress. Don't let that bother you. As you approach the rock, you can often blast it away with a few careful shots from your vehicle's guns. That will allow you to easily collect points.

Droids attack as you try to deal with the second electricity generator.

Figure-8 swoops make it easy to win this mini-game.

At the end of this long stretch, you'll come across another electricity generator. As you fire on it, more droids will fly in to ambush you from behind. Tend to them, then focus your fire on the generator again. Once you blast it apart, another mini-game icon will appear. Drift over it and accept the challenge.

In this mini-game, you need to swoop around and gather points from three square fields that regenerate points shortly after they are gathered. The easiest way to clean up here is to move in figure-8 sweeps, rather than attempting to stay within a single field and collect its points. This will allow you to quickly swoop through the most points-rich areas as points repopulate. You can easily stay ahead of Anakin, who is working furiously to grab more points than you do.

After clearing that mini-game with a ranking that satisfies you, resume your trip along the canyon. There will be several more enemies gathered along an archway, then shortly after that you should find yourself swooping toward a wider ledge. Yoda will talk about dash moves as you land on the space and continue through the stage on foot.

Head left along the top of the wall to find an artifact.

Collect the power-up, then jump forward to solid ground and clean house!

Start toward the right and climb up some platforms. The view will shift as you arrive at the top and you'll see the camera sweep over enemies lining the pathway ahead. Once that concludes, start by heading toward a ledge along the far left side. There's an artifact positioned here, so jump up and grab both it and the surrounding energy. Now you're ready to proceed along the main pathway that you saw a moment before.

Here, you'll find several of your comrades shooting it out with some enemies. You can walk across some beams (including one with a red power-up at its end) and then from there jump to the platform to assist your team members who are ducked behind bunkers. There aren't any terribly powerful enemies here, so you can go ahead and clean up the area along the left side either with melee attacks (which also nicely deflect laser shots from your enemies) or Force attacks. An archway will burst open and more enemies will arrive on the scene about halfway through the process. Defeat the last of them and the mission will conclude.
